There are two reasons I want to do this. #1, the KITT nose is too damn expensive. #2, I cant use my 84 GFX on a KITT nose. Here is the proposal: do any of you think it would be possible to use a KITT lightbar on a STOCK 84 nose? I want to paint the car all black, and make it "KITT2" or "KNIGHT2" and have a purple scanner. Opinions?

 

Yeah, with a little modification it is indeed possible.. I've seen it done... but I have seen it done 2 ways.. really good.. and really ****ty... so take your time in modifing the nose or it will look like crap.

 

i think someone actually sells the light bar that goes behind the hood and you see it throught the seem in the hood and the bumper.

 

I'd be interested in knowing who sells such a thing. Would be cool to look stock but still be able to have a ping pong effect strobe light above nose at night.

 

I also would like to know about something like this maybe a blue one for mine

 

hears a pic of a car that was on this sight OEM bumper cut for light

 

It can be done, easily. I have mapped it out several times. There is a "Knight Rider Replica" page out there somewhere, showing people who have done it both.

There is also a scanner light that mounts under the hood so you see the lights a night only. Its by Knights of England. I dont have there website, But you can find a link on the other one.

Best of luck and lets see som pictures when its done

 

karr is talkin about the one i was trying to explain.

 

Here's the one you can use with your stock bumper.

115 pounds(uk money) translates into about $175 to $200 dollars. I honestly would rather have a regular one and cut the nose. J C Whitney has ones that can be upgraded for $33. Whitney has them available in red or amber only(but you can probably change that

And Ive search the Knight Rider Replica database to find a car with a Whitney scanner and stock nose and included links to those cars

(not a whitney but stock nose)

forgot to mention that if you emai lthese guys with any questions about there "KITTs" they usualy are more then happy to tell you about them, and how they did them

 

Cool, i like the pic with the green lights in that white car. It doesnt look like it would be that difficult a thing to acomplish. I am currently looking at the "evo1" scanner on ebay for 239.

 

you guys think this concept of havin the lights shine through the hood to bumper gap could work on a camaro. i like the scanner and would really like to put on on my car.

 

Thank you very much for the info! It was most helpful!

I am considering buying one for my Firebird!

 

fThe JC Whitney 'scanners' are very cheaply made, but I needed a quick/cheap alternative when I started. My sig is the JC scanner. I've since upgraded to an Irviscar one.
BTW, I got my Kitt nose off ebaymotors for $450.

 

They are cheap but the beauty of them is they are upgradeable. for another $50-$60 at a home depo you can turn it into a nice one

 

Thats a tight kit, but whats up with homeboy here








To the extreme yo!
